This is just plain wrong. Even expelling an 8-year-old for a YEAR because he had a toy gun in his backpack is over the top. Two years is unbelievable. This little boy is going to be deprived a public school education because the school board is filled with idiots? Apparently not one sensible ear among 'em. Just plain wrong-wrong-wrong.

Now THIS is one case I'd like the ACLU to take on.

To be frank, that might be a good thing, considering the situation.

I just hope he has parents with the money to stay home and educate him properly themselves.

eight years old and may have to repeat second grade

my suspicion is the school is using this as an opportunity to not have to deal with a troublesome student for at least two years
 
Home school the kid.

Judging by the actions of the school district, he will probably be better off.

Sounds like speculation ... any citation to back that up or are you pulling a "Hannity" a la Mike Castle from last night?

Just read it again... still inquiring and it's still speculation.

Then you perhaps should stop speculating and following your idol, Sean Hannity. Deal in facts, you'll do better and not have to resort to child like tactics such as "dismissing" .... :lamo
 
This is a perfect example. Show me a zero-tolerance policy and I’ll show you zero-intelligence.
 
This situation is ridiculous...
